Very cute, Richard! I love the softness and the golden highlights on the girls. Were these really twins, or did you edit that into there?
Love it!

  That is actually real, unplanned. Was just walking down the beach with my camera, and these two showed up with their mother. I added a little soft focus effect (my own technique, not a filter). The rest was just a slight enhancement of the morning sun. Thanks for the comments.

  LUCK is my best friend when photographing. Sometimes it's required to establish a "great shot." Good eye Richard.

  Great shot! Being a twin myself I like it even better (even if my twin is of the opposite sex) because it reminds me of the special bond between us!
Congrats!

  Wende, Donna, Sharon, Bob, Johnny and Cathy, thanks for the kind words. I've shot a few more people since. I think sometimes I fiddle too much (or use extreme settings) to get good people shots...I appreciate the comments and encouragement.

  I noticed this before, Richard, and didn't comment then. But this is such a luminous picture. I see that word here and there, but this really exemplifies it for me.
